Project Description

View help for Summary
As
future physicians, first-year medical students are well positioned to work on
the long-term creation of a more equitable healthcare system. But how prepared
are first-year medical students to begin the work of dismantling structural
racism in the US healthcare system? In this study, we analyzed a sample of 75
medical student reflective responses to a book focused on the legacy of racism
in medicine. Our findings indicate that students enter medical school in a
range of states of critical consciousness that are visible in their ‘stances’
towards racial inequality in the healthcare system. The stances described in
our findings extend the critical consciousness framework, providing a more
nuanced understanding of students’ starting orientations to health justice.
Since students arrive in different stances towards confronting the systemic
inequalities inherent to the US healthcare system, understanding these stances
may help medical educators tailor learning experiences to medical students' needs
more effectively.
